Soft Cheesy Sticks

Soft, golden, and delicious cheesy sticks, great for a party as an appetizer and/or snack on game night.

This soft cheesy sticks are one of my favorite snacks. Actually I have a little hard time describing them – so I will write only – they are awesome, delicious, easy to made and require only a few ingredients.

You can eat them with a glass of milk for breakfast or instead of bread with some kind of a creamy soup as my Creamy Vegetable Soup. I’ve sprinkled them with cumin and sesame seeds, spices give them an extra kick.
